Installation & the Database

You need to create the actual database first on your webhosting server, then create a user, give the user access ALL rights to the database, then input those values into the one step installer =)

This should help:

Do you have a mySQL database with your hosting deal ?

Podz: yeah..I always forget about codex, silly me, thanks for posting the link =)

Yes, I do have mySQL databases with my package. My webhost offers a one click installation of Geeklog, but once I get that installed I can’t figure out how to get a webpage to display it.

So now I’m trying WordPress, which seems like it will fit my needs better in the long run.

BTW,

Forgot to say thanks to you guys, podz and jdingman
